Chapter 165
165 Dispute
Xia Pingan reached out and grabbed the wrist of one hand.
He turned his head and saw a thin 14 or 15-year-old teenager wearing a gray felt hat and clothes that were stained with raindrops. The teenager was staring at him with a fierce look without any fear.
The two chopsticks in the youngster’s hand had already fallen to the ground.
“F * ck, what are you doing? let go!” Not only was the young man not afraid, but he also threatened her fiercely.
Xia Pingan exerted a little force and the young man’s face revealed a trace of pain. However, there was also a trace of cunningness hidden in the pain.
ah! the young man shouted loudly, with a strong element of acting. Then, he fell on the dirty ground and twitched all over.
The people who had just arrived in Shangjing were so frightened that they immediately scattered. At the same time, more than ten people surrounded Xia Pingan. They were all men in their teens and twenties. Some of them wore felt hats, while others wore yellow waistbands that were used to carry luggage outside the port. They surrounded Xia Pingan in an instant and stared at him with fierce eyes. Many of them put their hands in their bulging pockets, It seemed that there was a sharp weapon inside.
“Shrimp skin, what’s wrong?” A 20-odd man with a flat face and a pair of small eyes walked out of the crowd as he asked in a hoarse voice.
brother Hong, I just came over to ask him if he wanted to salute me, but I didn’t expect him to hit me. Aiyo, Aiyo, it’s too painful! the young man who fell to the ground shouted and twitched on the ground as if he was performing.
friend, we brothers are only doing hard labor here to make a living. We’re just helping people carry their luggage to earn some hard-earned money. Aren’t you going too far by bullying a child like this? ” The young man called brother Hong looked at Xia Pingan coldly and took two steps closer. it’s fine if you don’t want our service, but why did you hit us? ”
“That’s right, why did you hit him?”
“F * ck, how dare you bully us? I’ll stab you to death!”
“Kill him, kill him Yingluo!”
The surrounding people gathered around and glared at Xia Pingan fiercely. Some of them were making noise and threatening her, while a few of them were staring at the luggage in Xia Pingan’s hands.
Xia Pingan looked down at the shrimp skin on the ground. While the shrimp skin was twitching, it had kicked the two wooden chopsticks that had fallen on the ground into the crowd. The people in the crowd kicked one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the two wooden chopsticks were separated and disappeared.
This was a group crime with a clear division of labor. Once the theft was discovered, they would threaten and blackmail the people in front of them. These people were already very familiar with this.
As the saying goes, one can see the whole picture with just a glimpse. Such a group was blocking the Gangkou District of Shangjing to commit crimes, but there was no police to take care of it. The public security and environment faced by the middle and lower class people of Shangjing were probably worse than he had imagined.
Seeing that Xia ping ‘an didn’t say anything and just looked around, the people surrounding them became emboldened. Brother Hong and a few people in the crowd gave each other a look, and the surrounding people gathered around in a chaotic manner.
“Beat him up!” Someone in the crowd shouted.
In the chaos, the surrounding crowd blocked the view of the people outside. A few hands grabbed Xia ping ‘an’s luggage with sharp blades in their hands, and some hands directly grabbed Xia ping’ an as if they were trying to search Xia ping ‘an. Some hands clenched into fists, and some had half a brick or a wooden stick in their hands. They hit Xia ping’ an’s head and body. A few younger teenagers even sneaked out of the crowd. She wanted to hold Xia Pingan’s hand.
The twitching shrimp skin on the ground stopped twitching. With a vicious smile, he wanted to hug Xia ping ‘an’s leg.
The scene in front of him was like a group of hyenas besieging a Lion.
In this situation, ordinary people would probably find it difficult to deal with it in a short time, except for being beaten up and robbed.
However, those people might be able to work together as closely as hyenas, but Xia Pingan was not as easy to deal with as a Lion.
Xia Pingan’s face was expressionless. She just picked up her suitcase and glanced around.
The suitcase knocked away the fists, the bricks, the wooden stick, the hands, and the body.
The people who surrounded him rolled around in pain and fell to the ground.
Brother Hong’s head was hit by the suitcase, and he suddenly became dizzy and flew two meters away.
“Aiyo, Aiyo, someone’s hitting me, someone’s hitting me, Yingluo.”
Those people cried out in unison.
Seeing how brave Xia ping ‘an was and how strong he was, the people on the ground did not dare to rush over again.
du du du du du du du du. a police officer in a black uniform holding a Baton finally appeared when those people were shouting.
what are you doing? what are you doing? who hit you? ” The fat police officer walked over noisily and asked loudly with a cold face.
police officer, he hit someone! brother Hong, who was on the ground, and the group of people who were crying out in pain, all pointed at Xia Pingan.
“Officer, they’re stealing, snatching, and even beating people up. Aren’t you going to do something about it?” Xia Pingan said to the police officer.
I didn’t see what you said. They said that you hit someone. So many people saw Yingluo. the police officer walked directly towards Xia Pingan with a fierce face and a police baton in his hand.
the bricks, wooden sticks on the ground, and the blades hidden on their bodies are evidence. You’ll know once you search!
Hearing Xia Pingan’s words, the police officer’s face turned even colder. He stared at Xia Pingan with a pair of unkind eyes and chided, ” do the police need you to teach them how to handle a case? if you have anything to say, let’s talk at the police station, Yingluo.
As he spoke, the police officer took out the handcuffs from his waist and was about to cuff Xia Pingan.
Xia ping ‘an finally understood why these thieving and blackmailing gangs were so rampant in the dock area. It turned out that they had an umbrella of protection. They were like a nest of snakes and rats. When he saw the police taking out handcuffs to handcuff him, he took a step back and avoided them in an instant.
The police officer’s face changed slightly. damn it, you still dare to arrest me? ”
“Do you know who I am?” Xia Pingan blinked and suddenly asked the police officer a question.
The police officer was stunned. Who are you? ”
“I’m not telling you!” Xia Pingan smiled.
The policeman’s expression changed and he tried to grab Xia Pingan again. Xia Pingan’s hands were as fast as lightning. She grabbed the handcuffs from the policeman’s hands and at the same time, grabbed his wrist. The policeman staggered and was involuntarily dragged by Xia Pingan to the light pole of a street lamp at the side.
Xia Pingan’s actions were too fast. With two cracking sounds, the police officer was still in a daze. Before he could react, his hands had already wrapped around the lamp post and he was being roasted by Xia Pingan.
Not only that, but Xia Pingan also pulled off the whistle around his neck and the key to the handcuffs on his belt.
“You actually dare to resist arrest, quickly let me go!” The police officer screamed in a shrill voice. At the same time, he looked extremely embarrassed. As a police officer, he was actually cuffed by a person in public and was even holding a lamp post. He had lost a lot of face.
it’s because of a trashy police officer like you that these people dare to cause trouble here, swindle, and swindle. Xia Pingan waved his hand and threw the police whistle and the key to the handcuffs in his hand into the gap of the sewer beside them.
someone come quickly, someone come quickly, Na Zha Zha! the police officer shouted.
Before anyone could surround her, Xia ping ‘an had already picked up her suitcase and ran. In the blink of an eye, she had run hundreds of meters in the drizzling rain. She turned a corner and disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Brother Hong and his men, who were lying on the ground, did not react in time. They did not expect Xia ping ‘an to run away. When they got up one by one, they had only chased for a few steps before they could no longer see his figure.
you bastards, don’t you have brains? find the key and unlock my handcuffs, ” the police officer who was cuffed to the streetlight shouted in anger.
Brother Hong and his men quickly turned around and hurriedly pulled open the manhole cover of the sewer, trying to fish out the key. However, it was raining today, and the water in the sewer was a little strong. The key that Xia Pingan had thrown into the sewer was washed away by the water and could no longer be seen.
The onlookers at the exit of the dock looked as if they had just seen a comical farce.
The police had been cuffed, and a group of hooligans were trying to save the police.
It’s really the police and the citizens, ah, ah.
……
A black four-wheeled carriage was parked by the roadside not far away.
At the back of the carriage, elder Jing was watching what was happening through the dark-colored glass window. It was not until he saw Xia Pingan’s figure disappear around the corner of the street that elder Jing, who was sitting in the carriage, smiled. He pulled up the curtains of the carriage window and gently knocked on a wooden board inside the carriage with his cane.
“Let’s go!”
hyah! the coachman in a raincoat shook the reins slightly, and the black four-wheeled carriage began to move.
……
Xia ping ‘an’s speed was very fast. After turning around the corner and seeing that no one was chasing after him, Xia ping’ an immediately stopped a four-wheeled carriage that was carrying passengers that had just alighted.
The four-wheeled carriages in Shangjing were used to carry passengers and pull people. The front light of the carriage was yellow, which was very easy to distinguish.
The Coachmen were wearing raincoats, bamboo hats, and rain capes. They sat in front of the carriage and held the reins like fishermen sitting alone in the cold river.
“The main camp of the judgement Army.”
Although the road was easy to walk from the eastern Harbor to the adjudicator Army’s camp in the North, the distance was more than 500 miles, and it would take the carriage almost a day to travel.
Moreover, the weather was not good today, and the journey was long. Just as the coachman was about to refuse, Xia Pingan had already thrown a gold coin over.
After taking the gold coins, the coachman seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and quickly jumped off the carriage to take Xia Pingan’s luggage.
The carriage started to run briskly in the drizzling rain. Xia Pingan touched his body. The money he had gotten from Dawan city was only left with two gold coins and a few silver coins.
In the misty rain and fog outside, Zhang tie could see various tall and gorgeous buildings in the Gangkou District with the signs of commercial organizations, banks and companies everywhere.
There were all kinds of people in Shangjing. In order to survive and to fight for fame and fortune, countless people struggled, climbed, swallowed, and bit in the city. Shangjing was not a good place.
However, Xia ping ‘an liked this place very much. It was precisely because this place was not a good place that she had the opportunity to be here.
The real opportunity would be hidden in the chaos and conflicts.
Shangjing city, I’m coming!
